But
No No. you are reading it in piece-meal.
Three kinds of jeevas - sattva, rajas, tamas - 'end' accordingly.
U-rdhvam-ga-ccha-nti sa-ttva-sthA
ma-dhyaE ti-SHTHa-nti rA-ja-sAH |
ja-gha-nya-gu-Na-vRe-tti-sthA
a-dhO ga-ccha-nti tA-ma-sAH || 14.18
It is only sattika-jeevas that will eventually have their 'end' or laya in
ParamAtman.
Once they reach Him, there is no returning back to this world again.
"yad gatvA na nivartante taddhAma paramam mama" - geetha. 15.6
The tAmasika-jeevas will have their 'end' or laya in Andah-tamas.
"MAm-aprApyaiva kaunteya tato yanty adhamAm gatim" - 16.20
The rajasika-jeevas will have their 'end or laya in samsAra itself or in
other
words, they are in permanent birth/death circulation for ever.
In *praLaya" everything is taken back by Parabrahman, it does not mean
everyone gets mOksha in *praLaya*. Only those who have attained
mOksha, are not circulated in the next *Creation*, the rest of them will
be.
In either *praLaya* or in *mOksha*, the jIvAtman will stay as jIvAtman
So, there is no process of merging jIvAtman in paramAtman at any time.
In mOksha, jIvAtman is in constant enjoyment of his svaroopa-Ananda,
in the sAnidhya of ParamAtman.
I hope it is clearer.
